Growing up, MLK was and is a hero of mine. His messages were very influential to me. My wife @jennifer.j.quinn painted this #LuxPortrait of Dr. King using luminous bacteria. It’s a metaphor: if we all organize the right way, we can light a way forward, perhaps.

Yes it's important people understand a preprint hasn't been peer-reviewed. BUT it's also important to understand that what "peer-reviewed" means varies considerably, in some cases signifying nothing... www.science.org/content/arti...
